” Death brings pain that only time can heal, No words could ease what we truly feel, But with God, his joy is eternally sealed, And Cherish his memories that death can not even steal, Lift up a smile for he is already in ”Paradise”
Sending sympathy and prayers to the family of Ronnie Goldsmith now and days to follow. May you find peace in this time of sorrow.
